Heading reads--Wedding of Mr A.Boyland and miss B.M.Gould.
At this time the groom was serving in Royal Airforce,and was son of Mr and Mrs A.Boyland.date is a problem but at a guess 1950's???The bride was daughter of late Mr ,J.gOULDand Mrs Gould of Castlewell,Stockland.Really hard one this,but would welcome any help,Thanks

Langtry,

A quick look at a perpetual calendar shows Sat 12th April 1952 and 1958.

Do these years sound likely?  If not just "google" everlasting or perpetual calendar and work through the years.

From the marriage index:
Arthur Boyland married Bessie M Gould Apr-Jun 1941 Honiton, volume 5b, page 49

Bessie M Gould was probably born Jul-Sep 1918 Axminster, which includes the parish of Stockland, which is mentioned on your newspaper cutting. Her mother's maiden name is Pym.
Transcribing Essex records for FreeREG.
Current parishes - Burnham, Purleigh, Steeple.
Get in touch if you have any interest in these places!

Hi, Wendy and welcome to rootschat.
It is thoughtfull of you to offer to share your information.  Although the original question was asked seven years ago the poster should receive an email telling them of your reply.
